ASD men, what facial hair style do you rock?

And those attracted to men, which style(s)do you prefer?

I can't really grow a lot of facial hair...I can form a sort of halfway decent mustache/goatee, but my hair is so light-colored that I don't think it looks too good, plus I really don't like the feeling. I stay clean-shaven.

I'm indecisive. Grow a beard, decide I don't like it, shave it off. Think "that beard looks pretty sweet I should grow a beard." Rinse repeat.

Clean-shaven.

I had a mustache all through the 1980s. And a beard for maybe a year around 1985 (it didn't look good).

In 1990, I shaved off the mustache. The rest is history.

Have a moustache since 30 years now but keep it quite short today. Didn't ever liked myself being shaved.

Sideburns that extend down to my earlobe level. To some, that's not really a sideburn, but to most people they are and it has been a notable style I've been "rocking" since the mid-90s.

I'm always clean shaven. I tried growing a beard once, but it became sensory overload after awhile, so I'm never trying that again :?

From my early 20s onwards, I've always had a beard of variable length - a bit like with sheep, I shear it back in Spring to let a bit more cooling air in. I wouldn't be without it, as it's my favourite stim toy!

I think that men with good bone structure and those with unique faces shouldn't hide those features. Beards can make men look kinda samey, but then again, some faces do look better with beards. There's a delicate science to it... beard science.

Clean shaven Sunday-Thurs and stubble Fridays and Saturdays. Unless I'm off of work, then I won't shave. My whiskers on my cheeks are more sparse then around my mouth and chin so a full beard for me isn't the best look. That and at this point my whiskers are a mish mash of white, gray, brown, blond, red and even some black.

I don't like shaving so I have a full beard.

An alternation between a clean-shaven face and a short beard.
